Here I am when we first got to Amsterdam in front of the many canals there.
We ate dinner in front of the main plaza here.
Here is a torture device, from the Torture Museum. The museum was creepy.
This is the house where Anne Frank and her family went into hiding. Despite the line it was well worth visiting.
Here Allison and me are waiting in line for the Anne Frank House.
We went to the Hard Rock Cafe in Amsterdam. I got an island mai tai (which was very good!)
Here we are in front of the monument.
This monument was made to commemorate Dutch soldiers in World War II.
This church is right at the edge of the Red Light District. The sailors would pay indulgences here after crazy nights of drinking and being with prostitutes. I couldn't take any pictures of the Red Light district (not that I really wanted to), because the girls get mad. They will do anything from throwing your camera in the river to tossing a cup of pee at you. Also, some random trivia. The oldest prostitute in the red light district is 75!
The houses by the canals move about one inch a year!
This coffeeshop is where Ocean's Twelve was filmed. We also saw a coffeeshop down the street where Snoop Dog and Willy Nelson have been spotted smoking together.
Before there were house numbers, there would be images like this.
Here is the narrowest house in Amsterdam.

This poster made me laugh...
The Dutch love to bike!
We went to the Heinken Brewery. It was not worth the 15 Euros spent, even with the two beers they gave you.
I had to take a pictures of these urinals! To me its crazy that there are urinals in public like that - and people use them!

We spent the first night in a hostel, but Friday and Saturday night we slept in this boat. The room was small, but cozy.
